Post by Shell on Oct 4, 2022 13:25:18 GMT -5

The 5.7.2 patch was finished today. Full list of changes: www.alexsdbzrpg.com/archdetails.php

There may be some late additions in the upcoming week which will be listed here (as there usually are).

Special thanks to Revan who did most of the coding work before RL got to him again. Also thanks to all Mods who helped in the process and all players that made suggestions. We really can't do this without you all.

Use this thread for discussion.

Due to changes that happened in this patch the following will be given out to all characters.

Due to Changes in Stats not directly impacting damage:
1 Free: Ki Redistributor *50% More Effective so (75k possible) (Doesn't count towards limits on the item) (Call it Patch Redistributor)

Due to Stats directly impacting damage and the Pefu Forge being restored to its former glory.
Players may freely change enhancements to equivalent Costs in Zeni, Weeks and Points (this will need to be posted in here that it is done and Liked by Me for approval)

Due to Changes in Fighting Styles:
1 Free: Scroll of Martial Arts Relearning (Doesn't Count towards limit on the Item) (Call it Patch Martial Arts Relearning)

These refunds will have a timelimit. Probably 1 month or 2 weeks after a rejoin. I'll post when they need to be used by at least 1 week in advance.

The intention wasn't to change Training Buffs to Battle Buffs, but I didn't declare that so I'll let it slide this time.

Also see my reply below I'll assume you will want to change 2 Energy Damage Enhancements.

Patch 5.7.2 Released Oct 6, 2022 11:19:35 GMT -5

Post by Shell on Oct 6, 2022 11:19:35 GMT -5

With the Forge change I'm also going to add that for now you can only have 1 enhancement from each of the 3 Point Cost enhancements at a time. So no putting 8% energy damage on each item you have.

If you are mad at me, that's fine. If it seems ok to allow more I'll change it at a future time. Just some concerns that made sense were brought up so we will ease into bringing back the enhancements for damage and reduction.

In that case I’ll just leave the boots alone and change the others. Speed Buff is good too and I’ve still got +15% energy with my inscriptions and other stuff.

So foods won't suddenly have like 12 perks and such. If that wasn't clear now it is.

This is great guys. I just wanted to give a shout out to all staff (especially Shell who actually edited the whole site) for doing this patch completely without me. While I looked through the changes and ultimately approved/disapproved basically everything in this patch was their ideas. Well done!
